    An absolute beautiful, well-run wedding venue!

    Where to begin?! Nanina's is truly top notch and a well-oiled machine! From the moment we toured the venue, we fell in love. Not only is the ambiance and venue itself breathtaking, but the staff is welcoming and helpful from the start. We toured with Stephen, who is so genuine and kind. We never felt pressured or sales-pitched to book, which was something we appreciated after touring many venues. They truly want you to have a magical day. Once we booked, the staff was always available to answer questions and adjust whatever we needed (whether I called and spoke to Liz at the front or emailed Stephen or Vicky) as well as throw in so many additions and perks with ease and happiness to do so. On the day of our wedding, 02/10/24, we got ready on site and had the venue to ourselves all day. They served breakfast, lunch and drinks and really made sure myself and all my girls as well as the groom and his guys had everything that was needed to be comfortable throughout the day. Cristal, the morning bridal attendant, was helpful in making sure we had what we needed while setting up the decor I provided. The evening bridal attendant, Martha, was so attentive and made sure I was taken care of all night with whatever I needed...and I mean whatever was needed from using the bathroom to a drink, she was on it! Our maitre d was Vicky, a true gem. She was so prompt and professional all night, running the show with such ease - she truly knows what she is doing! All while making my husband and I feel so comfortable and calm. Now the good stuff...the food. WOW. Not only is there so much of it, but it is all incredibly delicious! The cocktail hour had so many stations with such variety, the duet plate for the entree was cooked perfectly and delicious and the Venetian hour was full of so many desserts! We also opted to add on the after party and the diner food and boozy milkshakes were absolutely delicious and a great way to end the night with our guests. We both come from big Italian families and groups of friends who love good food and we have received so many compliments on how amazing and delicious the food was!! There was not a hungry stomach by the end of the night! Nanina's knows how to throw an amazing wedding and truly provides top tier service to all couples and their guests! Our wedding was truly magical and special, I cannot praise Nanina's enough.

    A dream wedding venue!

    An absolute DREAM wedding venue! From the moment we stepped into Nanina’s at the Park when visiting venues, we knew that it was the perfect place for us. The team at Nanina’s was incredibly helpful and their family oriented atmosphere really stood out to us. We originally met with Julian, who walked us through everything Nanina’s has to offer but never put any pressure on us. He assured us that this was to be our big day and they want only to help make the best day possible. Leading up to the wedding, we began to work with Amy, who was our Mater Dei during the day. She was incredibly helpful leading up to the Wedding Day, helping us to keep organized and make sure that we weren’t forgetting any details. On the day of the wedding, Amy and Martha were truly the best we could have asked for. They had directions for us at every turn and, more importantly, kept a fresh drink in our hands almost as soon as we finished the last one. We were able to maximize the time we spent together and with our friends and family without a single worry about anything! And of course, the food. The food was out of this world AMAZING. There was so much food and every single thing was absolutely delicious. Every single day since the wedding people have said something to us about how it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding! We were saying how we wish Nanina’s had a restaurant we can go to every week! Overall, we are so lucky to have the Nanina’s in the Park team be a part of our wedding… they are truly the best there is at all levels!

    NJ's best wedding venue

    Believe everything you’ve ever heard about this venue… WOW. They are a well oiled machine. My husband and I were absolutely blown away by the level of service we received not only on our wedding day, but the entire lead up to the day. They made the planning process an absolute breeze and made it so easy for us as a DIY couple to set up the decor we made and bring our vision to life.
    Our maitre de Vicky and bridal attendant Martha were OUTSTANDING throughout the day/night, at times quite literally getting on their hands and knees for us and they truly did not let us lift a single finger. We were treated like royalty the entire evening and I kept joking I felt like I was going to turn into a pumpkin once the clock struck midnight.
    Lastly, the FOOD. Nearly every single guest has told us they were amazed at not only the quantity but more importantly the quality of the food! Believe the hype, it exceeds it.

    The MOST Amazing People

    Getting a date for Nanina’s is definitely a competition. I had booked the venue back in 2022, and I got married on 1/06/2024. After the wedding, I now understand why they are such a popular venue and sought after venue. The planning and leading up to the wedding was a breeze with Nanina’s. They were extremely helpful, not pushy like other venues I spoke to, and very communicative with any questions I had. Before choosing Nanina’s, I had toured and spoke with 9 other venues around Northern/Central NJ. Even after seeing other venues and comparing pricing, my husband and I ultimately decided that Nanina’s was the best venue to book. Their prices and what was given was very reasonable. Stephen, Vicky, and Julian were so incredible helpful!
    The night before the wedding and the morning of (before arriving to the venue to get ready) was probably the worst I ever felt. I was sick, stressed, had no sleep, and was dealing with some family drama the night before. I actually arrived at the venue crying, but the first person who greeted me outside in the parking lot was Crystal, one of the bridal attendants. She gave me a hug and reassured me, took care of me, and my girls. She was very attentive, professional, and helpful. Crystal steamed all of our dresses! There were 14 dresses total too (I had dresses and traditional wear for everyone)! She also made sure everyone got their drinks, food, and all the details were hung and ready for the evening. Throughout the day, Nanina’s staff was incredibly kind and understanding. Vicky checked in throughout the day and double-checked any details before the ceremony. She also came up with great suggestions for the ceremony. Also, Vicky made sure my grandfather had food during cocktail & dinner even though he had a very restrictive diet.
    When evening came around, Crystal said her goodbyes and Martha became my evening bridal attendant. Martha is superwoman. I have so many wonderful things to say about her. I probably would have been a wreck if it wasn’t for Martha. You can tell she has been in the business for a long time and her expertise shows in her actions. Martha was notified by Crystal about my morning, so she knew all the details before I could tell her anything. She did things BEFORE I could even think of them. She bustled, help me change out of my dresses/shoes, made sure I was hydrated, tried to keep me out the cold (since I was sick), and also made sure my bridesmaids were all good on top of all of that. Throughout the night, she stuck by me even when we did a session with the photographers and whenever I needed to go to the bathroom.
    Thank you to all the Nanina’s servers, bartenders, and behind-the-scene staff! All of our guests were raving about the service, all the wonderful food, and how attentive everyone was throughout the night. Thank you, Nanina’s, for being so kind. With the crazy weather and the things that happened at my wedding, I’m so grateful for everyone for helping making our wedding day fun. I hope one day I can attend a Nanina’s event as a guest!
    Also, I was lucky enough to have their Christmas decorations up for my wedding!

    If you want the perfect wedding venue, look no further!

    If you want to plan a wedding that no one will ever forget - call Nanina's in the Park. I had been to a wedding there as a guest years ago and remember being impressed, but being a Nanina's couple takes the WOW factor to a whole new level. The menu is absolutely divine, but they knock it out of the park with their customer service. Wedding planning was a breeze with their team, and the day of was truly magical. Sally, Deandra and Jason did not miss a single thing - they treated me & my husband like gold and made sure things were taken care of so seamlessly. We had a Friday wedding, so we were offered the bridal suite from 7AM onward--with breakfast & lunch provided, which alleviated the question of where to get ready & when/what to eat. We arrived at 7:30 AM and Sally was waiting with open arms (literally) to carry in all our bags, boxes, etc. She made sure we had everything we needed, kept us on schedule and even fixed our centerpieces when they arrived a bit out of sorts. Deandra took over for her when we returned from the ceremony, and she was just as delightful- anytime we needed something, she was immediately on it. And then there's our maitre'd Jason--words cannot express our gratitude for him. I don't know how someone can be so on top of every detail during such a busy evening, and still appear as calm & warm as humanly possible. At one point during the reception, my husband wasn't feeling well and before I could say anything, Jason whisked us into our bridal suite and had warm tea & ginger ale for us within 60 seconds. It wasn't one of the more glamorous parts of the evening, but it was a true example of their phenomenal customer service. The team didn't just treat us like customers, they treated us like family. They had our signature drinks at the ready at all times and consistently made sure we were okay without being overbearing. A million thank you's to this incredible team for making our day so special. Now that I've raved about the staff, let me rave about the FOOD! Exceptional is an understatement--it's been a month and people are still telling me they're still full from our wedding. Guests raved so much about the cocktail hour, someone even said they could die content if that was their last supper. We did a buffet-style reception, and everyone was just as thrilled with all the stations provided. Going into wedding planning one of my priorities was the dessert, and the Viennese display did NOT disappoint. They had everything--my biggest regret was not getting to try it all! Aside from the incredible food, the venue itself is just stunning. We knew we wanted a Christmas wedding, and in our first meeting when Dominic said "no one does Christmas like us," he wasn't kidding. The decor was simple but elegant, and many guests thanked us for their next year's Christmas card photo! All in all, it was a perfect day at the perfect venue. We both come from two big Italian families, and so far no one has had a negative word to say--and that's saying a lot! If you are looking to book your dream venue, you've come to the right place.

    Beautiful Venue with Amazing People!

    Choosing Nanina's in the Park was the best wedding decision I made. Words cannot express the emotion and gratitude I still feel for this venue and amazing people that work here well after having my wedding there on 10/26/23. Everyone really makes you feel at home and so special! I toured 13 venues in New Jersey, before making my final decision on Nanina's, and I am so HAPPY that I did. We worked with Julian who was AMAZING throughout it all. He made sure all our questions were answered and made everything from pre-wedding to post-wedding effortless. The day of my wedding, I was so lucky to have the fun Sally as my bridal attendant in the AM. She is so SWEET and made sure everyone was comfortable and happy while we were getting ready. My evening bridal attendant, Diandra, was awesome! She is a pro at wedding dress quick alterations and adjustments. She was always there when I needed her, and knew what I needed at every second, sometimes even before I knew. Jason was our Maître 'd and was also so nice and accommodating to me and my whole family. He coordinated the event so beautifully all while making sure me and my husband were happy every minute. The whole staff works like a family and you can feel the warm energy all around, Nanina's. The food was AMAZING too! And of course there was so much! All of our friends and family raved about the food and presentation. I could go on and on however, I am ultimately so grateful for each and everyone of the staff and crew who made my day extra special and one I will never ever forget. Thank you, Nanina's!! YOU'RE ALL AMAZING!!!

    Our Perfect Wedding, 10/19/2023

    JUST WOW!! There are not enough words to describe our experience at Naninas. Everything was just PERFECT – the venue itself was stunning, working with Vicky during our entire scheduling and planning process was so easy, Liz was a joy to speak to every time we walked into Naninas. Everyone at Naninas is so welcoming. Our dream wedding came to life, especially with our amazing bridal attendants, Sally & Deandra, along with our Maitre D, Amy! Sally was there to keep my parents & in-laws calm during the first looks and kept us updated on the day’s schedule of the morning and early afternoon. She was so friendly and fun to be around. Deandra and Amy were on top of it all night – drinks always in our hands, bustled my dress after the cocktail hour, the pampering and attention to detail was immaculate. There was not a worry in the world when it came to our wedding day. Our families and friends cannot stop talking about this awesome party we threw, and the FOOD – don’t even get us started! Impeccable. The amount of food and the quality of food was amazing. Compliments from every single one of our guests confirmed we made the right decision with Naninas. Naninas over-exceeded our expectations. I hope that one day I am invited back to a wedding to enjoy all the small moments we missed. We are so thankful to everyone at Nanina’s for making each moment one to remember for a lifetime!

    Best venue ever

    Every single thing about Naninas is fab-u-lous! From the suites to get ready in to the outdoor gorgeous grounds. Every single thing is perfection. Planning with the team was a dream and they took so much stress off of the process. They are amazing. Steve and Amy helped plan our wedding and she was our Maitre’D on the day of. She was always accessible when we needed to ask anything and made us feel extremely relaxed. She was in the middle of planning her own wedding but you would never know because she was always helping with ours.

    THE FOOD!!! People are still talking about the food. Every single crumb was delicious. We are secretly hoping someone we know gets married there so we can go as guests. We are even planning to host future events here just so we can come back!!!

    I didn’t even know a bridal attendant for the day of was a thing but boyyyy do you need one. Which brings me to:

    Mounia. I can not begin to express my gratitude for Mounia. Did someone send her from heaven because she was a literal ANGEL on my wedding day. She took care of things before I even thought of them or had the chance to ask about them. She touched up my makeup every step of the way and made sure my hair and veil looked exactly how I wanted before each set of photos were taken. She carried ALL my stuff for me so it was handy whenever I needed anything. She made sure I was fed, hydrated and comfortable. Speaking of comfortable, she literally got on her hands and knees to change my shoes under the table while my husband and I got to sample food from cocktail hour. All for the sake of saving time so we could enjoy cocktail hour with guests. WOW! She moved a mile a minute and was somehow always right there when I needed anything. I now consider her a friend and can not imagine what my wedding would have been like without her. She made a drastic difference in how I felt overall and the marvelous outcome of everything. I feel like I need to call every wedding venue to make sure their bridal attendant game is on par with Mounia. There are no single words to describe my experience with her and all of the Nanina’s team.

    I highly recommend anyone getting married to seriously consider Nanina’s and definitely ask for Amy as your Maitre’D and Mounia as your bridal attendant

    Best wedding venue in nj

    Naninas in the Park is nothing short of spectacular! From the beginning of planning Julian and Liz were responsive, helpful, and made us feel confident our day would be special! No words could prepare us for what an incredible day the team at this venue would truly provide us! Vicky and Moon were a dream team making sure everything was perfect and my husband and I always had what we needed! Even fixing my bustle when it broke so I could continue dancing the night away! From the service, to the jaw dropping ballroom, and finally the FOOD (we will NEVER stop talking about the food) this venue made all of our dreams come true! We could not thank them enough for the best day of our lives!

    Dream come true

    Let me first start by saying WOW!!
    We had the pleasure of working with Vicky for our wedding and again let’s just say Wow! Vicky and Nanina’s made our wedding day a dream we could have never dreamt of, it was absolutely perfect. They say it’s tough to have a perfect wedding but Nanina’s accomplished it. We had over 200 people and I’ve gotten close to that many calls and text about how great and some say it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. We are so thankful for everyone at Nanina’s for making our day amazing.

    Nanina's in the Park is truly what made my wedding day absolutely the best day of my life. From the staff, to the food, the beautiful grounds, everything was amazing! There was an endless amount of food, the cocktail and Venetian hour was by far the best I have ever seen. All of our guests still say they had to try everything at the cocktail hour because the food was amazing. Peter, Liz, Tom, and the whole entire team treated my husband and I like family. They were always there to see if we needed anything and wanted to make sure we were having a great time. Our parents surprised us with an after-party and the team transformed the venue into a spectacular 80's diner theme! Overall, I would recommend Nanina's to all brides and grooms, you will be making the best decision!

    Above and Beyond

    From beginning to end Naninas did an absolute incredible job. The amount of food provided during cocktail and venetian hour does not compare to other venues that we toured, never the less the taste of the food, DELICIOUS! Service was top notch and all staff were super accommodating and friendly to our guests.

    No need to go anywhere to take pictures their grounds were beautiful and our pictures came out amazing.

    Vicki was our Maitre'D and Moon was our Bridal Attendant. Cannot say enough about the two of them. They made sure everything was running accordingly, sat us in front of a huge table filled with every dish served during cocktail hour and brought us drinks without even asking for one. Never seen anything like it.

    We were given tons of trays from both cocktail and venetian hour the day after when picking up our things, including our cake, boxed up and saran wrapped for our one year anniversary. Just an overall incredible experience that i guarantee every Bride and Groom will receive here at Naninas in The Park.

    Naninas Bride - 1/6/23

    Naninas wedding venue is an absolute dream 💭 come true.. The grounds, food, bridal suite, cocktail hour set up, ballroom layout, reception, overall service - maitre d, bridal attendants AND staff are truly unmatched. My husband and I are so happy we booked our special day here and are dying to be a guest at another Naninas wedding in the near future. Since it was Christmas season (decor was up for the season thru Little Christmas, 1/6) we got to take advantage of the beautiful lights and seasonal holiday decorations (lit Christmas tree in entrance and library, poinsettias, decorated mantle in ballroom, etc.)

    Throughout the day (and leading up) everyone was extremely polite and professional. The communication was top notch - they answered any and all questions. We felt so prepared after our finals meeting which was such a relief 1 month out. Our guests were raving about the cocktail hour food & ballroom reception. Our maitre D and bridal attendants were spot on. So appreciative. Would love to relive this day over and over.

    Amazing! Highly Recommend for your Wedding!

    My husband and I were married at Nanina's in the Park on 10/21/2022. From the moment we had met with Steve during our initial consultation, we were sold on having our wedding there. From the beautifully manicured grounds, to the food/drink options, to having a venue assist with every aspect of our special day, we were so happy to have chosen Nanina's!

    THE VENUE:
    10/10 - the updated ballroom and bridal suites (x2) are stunning. Our wedding party opted to get ready the morning of in the bridal suite and we were catered to with an assortment of breakfast options. Nanina's has 3 beauty stations for hair/makeup and private bathrooms within the suite, along with couches, a bar, and a huge table to gather around. They also had this iPad where you could play music in the entire room, and open the double doors to get some fresh air/see how things were coming along outside. The men were catered to in the groom's suite and were served lunch and beverages. They all raved about the food they were served and had a fun time getting ready.

    The downstairs cocktail hour was the perfect location to take more masculine pictures of my husband. The warmth of the room made it feel cozy while you received your first drink and cocktails.

    The ballroom is absolutely fabulous - they have multiple options for how the room can be set-up too in regards to tables and chairs. They have different lighting options (for a cost), and accommodate everything from table linens to plates.

    THE FOOD:
    10/10 - the food was OUT OF THIS WORLD. Anything you could think of, Nanina's had or offered! We had opted to add a fresh pulled mozzarella table during our cocktail hour and our guests RAVED about it. Cocktail hour at Nanina's in unmatched - the food never seemed to end! Guests really enjoyed the wide variety, and they had plenty of tables to sit/stand at, with lots of bars/waiters to serve top-shelf drinks. Months later, our guests are still talking about our wedding food.

    We did opt to give our guests the option to chose their dinner meals day-of, and people loved that they weren't stuck with choosing beforehand - they also allowed us to give a few options between meat, fish, and vegetarian which was an added bonus - something for everyone. We also loved that Nanina's had a Viennese table, and we were able to chose from 2 bakeries for our wedding cake (we went with Calandra's Bakery).

    The bars were fully staffed with top-shelf liquor, in addition to some ice sculptures around the room for guests to grab drinks.

    THE STAFF:
    10/10 - We cannot thank the following individuals enough: Liz, Steve, Sally (AM Bridal Attendant), Moon (PM Bridal Attendant), Cyrus (Maitre D), Vicky, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some more but these were the individuals who really made our day so special.

    - Liz did an outstanding job scheduling us to see the grounds, giving us her very honest opinions, which we truly appreciated, providing us with outstanding recommendations for our welcome dinner, food truck vendors, hotels/transportation, and overall coordinating all of our little details. She fielded all of our phone calls, emails, and concerns, and handled them with such professionalism, we couldn't have had our special day without her years of knowledge and patience in the months leading up to our big day. Any special requests we had, she made happen. Liz was really our go-to for everything - from making sure our ceremony chairs were 6-inches apart, to looking into specific wines we had liked, to handling our table place cards, we were super thankful to have her on our wedding day!

    - Vicky created a special round menu for our dinner plates - it was this added touch that we were so happy to have had our wedding at Nanina's because they went above and beyond. We can't thank her enough for making sure they came out beautiful!

    - Cyrus was there to ensure our day went smoothly and to make sure everyone in the bridal party + family were attended to, as well as ensuring our guests had an amazing time/experience. He was so tentative to our needs as the bride and groom and really commanded the room for moving things along. He was so sweet and calm, and really made us laugh when he brought our our "bride and groom bibs" when we had eaten our cocktail hour food in the bridal suite. His demeanor throughout the day was to ensure it was the best ever.

    - Sally was AMAZING! We had an issue with my dog getting dirt on my white "getting ready" PJ's and Sally was able to make them brand new! She helped steam our PJ's/dresses, attended to getting us food/drinks, and was so helpful in maintaining a fun attitude while getting ready. She also helped me get into my dress which was super helpful, as every bride can attest to that struggle. She also was so sweet, making small conversation with all of my bridesmaids and bridal party, and had a very calming presence.

    - Moon was the real MVP of the entire day! I cannot thank her enough - she was so attentive without being overbearing, walked me through everything going on for the day, and really made sure I (the bride), and all of my bridesmaids/immediate family were well taken care of during pictures and throughout the night. She was like Mary Poppins - she had my lipstick on hand at all times and touched it up, always asked if I could use a drink or something to eat (super important), and was there to help me with my dress (bathroom, bustling, you name it). She also carried around Band-Aids, deodorant, my wedding perfume - everything a bride needed to stay fresh on her wedding day. She also helped carry my dress, super relieving when it was quiet heavy from the beading. She also sprayed my feet to numb them from my heels, and made sure that the minute my ceremony was over, I could change into my sneakers. She thought of everything a bride could potentially need and she was truly a blessing, I can't thank her enough!

    Nanina's was the perfect venue for our wedding and we couldn't be more appreciative of their wonderful, attentive staff, who really made our day so special. We cannot recommend Nanina's enough to any brides looking to get married and use them as their venue.

    Most amazing venue and staff!

    I have wanted to have my wedding at Nanina's since I was in high school after attending a family member's wedding there and it most definitely lived up to the hype of what I remembered. Everyone at Nanina's from Liz to Steve & Vicky helping set us up with our date, all of our reception items, and picking out little details like linen colors and table markers to the wait staff the day of the wedding being so attentive to our guests... Everything was perfect. Our guests are still talking about how kind everyone was and how delicious the food was! Amy and Mounia took such great care of my husband and I during our reception from making sure we always had food & a full glass or fixing my train for photos... They went above and beyond. They thought of details I never would have like Amy putting my martini in a wine glass so I wouldn't spill on my dress and Mounia having white flip flops ready for me when I complained my feet hurt and even helping me put them on! I can sit here all day gushing about this wonderful venue and the special people that work there. No thanks will ever be enough for how special they made our day and we look forward to many more events there in the future!

    Happy Bride, Day of our Dreams

    Nanina's in the Park helped us usher into our new life as Mr. and Mrs.! We booked our venue three years before the wedding, and this left us plenty of time to get to know the staff, and and the venue. Steve, Julian and Amy were nothing but professional and always eager and ready to help. Liz at the front desk was very organized and ready to work with and our vendors. More importantly, my husband and I felt so important and special on our big day. We have never felt so special and catered to in our lives. Giselle and Krystal were our attendants and they were so attentive to every detail. The food was impeccable and our guests are still raving about our big day. We wish we can go back in time and re-do it. Highly recommend everything about this!

    Absolutely Blown Away

    Daron and I had the most magical wedding ever thanks to everyone at Naninas. We cannot thank the entire staff enough for making the whole wedding process as easy and laid back as possible. Also, a special thanks to Amy, she was the absolute best on the wedding day and took care of Daron and I the entire night!

    Best night of my life


    About 10 years ago I knew I wanted to get married at Naninas in the Park. I didn’t know when that would be or to whom but I knew I wanted to get married there. I worked for Naninas as a server for a couple years and the experience was AMAZING. The venue amazed me every single time I stepped inside and it still does to this day.

    On May 1st, 2022 my dream became a reality. I married the man of my dreams at my dream venue. The second I pulled up to the venue Julian greeted me and had my trunk open to grab my stuff before I even got out of the car. I was escorted to the bridal suite where I met Moon, my bridal attendant. She was the best from the second I got there until the second I left. She had everything I needed and more, she did everything I needed and more. She exceeded my expectations. When I was on the dance floor she would grab my empty glass and hand me a full one. When I sat back down at my table, she had drinks there waiting for me. She made sure I had everything I needed at ALL TIMES!

    I booked and planned my entire wedding in 6 months and Naninas made it EASY! Vicky helped me with EVERYTHING. Vicky was there to answer my random texts whether 8AM or 1AM. She made sure every detail of my wedding was perfect. Vicky made sure I had fun all night and she made sure everything was seamless.

    Everything about Naninas is AMAZING from the venue to the food to the entire staff.

    Vicky and Julian are the best! They made sure everything was perfect, as they always do!

    I knew from the start if Vicky and Julian were there, they would make sure my night was COMPLETELY PERFECT and it was beyond perfect.

    Amazing!!!!

    Naninas knocked it out of the park ! (No pun in intended ) Starting from the day we booked with Steve, who was so helpful and always available for any question we had during the planning process. Our wedding reception was beyond amazing and more than We could have imaged . Vicky our Maiter D is the best of the best, the whole evening was seamless because of her ! Along with Vicky , Julian, my Bridal attendant was by my side the entire night helping with anything I needed . You cannot ask for a better venue. The food is delicious, especially the cocktail hour, people were calling and talking about how great it was for weeks after. The ballroom is so stunning and made it feel so magical. I will say I was so calm all day because I knew I had nothing to worry about having my wedding at Naninas . Of course a beautiful venue with incredible food is important but having the A Team that Naninas has is what We truly believe made our wedding one of the Best !

    Best venue ever!!!

    Where do I begin?! As soon as my now husband and I walked into this venue we knew it was the one for us. They go above and beyond for your wedding day! The food, service is just beyond excellent! Our guests will not stop talking about how great the food was at our wedding and how much of it was there! Our wedding was everything we ever imagined and it’s all because of Nanina’s. I’m hoping that I can be a future wedding guest here because I just want to go back to the venue! I can go on for days about how excellent this venue is! I recommend to everybody and everyone, go book here now!!!

    The best of the best

    My husband and I had our wedding reception at Nanina’s in the Park 3/26/22 and we were left speechless. They gave us the party of a lifetime. We really got to see how special they were after our first tour there. You’re always greeted with a drink any time you step foot inside Nanina’s. You’re so welcomed, so at home, so reassured. All things that are so necessary when planning a wedding so that you’re not stressed. From the moment we arrived the day of, everything was in place ready to go. Our guests to this day complement us on how attentive everyone was towards them. The food was out of this world from cocktail hour to dinner all the way to the Viennese hour. We had so many options and stations for both our cocktail and Viennese hour. I highly recommend having your after party here as well, they put out such a great spread of your favorite late-night cravings that are just what you want after a long night of partying! We are so pleased and forever grateful to have chosen a venue like Nanina’s. Thank you Nanina’s, for sharing your home with us on the most important day of our lives. Also a special thank you to Steve, Vicky, and Liz for taking such good care of us. We can’t wait to host another party here in the future. All our love- Victoria and Brandon Moore

    Outstanding

    Naninas fulfilled every expectation of my wedding day. My MD Amy was excellent and so attentive. She was just so sweet and helpful, everywhere I turned she was there either collecting our gifts, passing us a a drink, assisting me and my gown, just everything. The food was absolutely amazing and the hall and decor looked beautiful, my guests were in awe!
